This topic lists the additions and improvements incorporated in InfoWorks® WS Pro Version 2025.1 which were not available in previous versions.
Please note that this new version also includes various bug fixes that are described in detail in the Release Notes.
See Known Issues for a list of limitations that we are aware of.
Skeletonizer tool improved to include options for open valves, hydrants, and flow-based customer allocation
The Skeletonizer tool has been enhanced to enable a greater reduction of the network size while achieving improved handling of demand re-allocation. Specifically, options are included to include open valves and hydrants during automatic removal. Customer points can be either reallocated based on the nearest node to the connection point, or based the hydraulic direction of flow. You can select a simulation with a specific time or dominant flow direction to reassign customer points upstream hydraulically.
Ruby Exchange methods for Generalized Multi-Run
Exchange now supports two new Ruby methods for managing GMR Configurations and retrieving the summary outputs of GMR Runs. This allows scripts to fully automate in-depth multi-simulation analyses.
Rest API for Live Data Adaptor
The Live Data Adaptor now supports a new generic Rest API as a data source. This allows organizations to efficiently connect live sensor data from custom databases.
EPANET Import now supports multiple scenarios
The EPANET import tool, as well as XINP importer for InfoWater, now support importing multiple files at once. InfoWorks WS Pro will use the initial file as the Base scenario, and all other files are incorporated as scenarios on the Network and Control, efficiently managing the differences after import.
Inferences now support including elevation changes in link length calculation
The Inference tool for estimating Link Length includes a new option to "Use elevation when calculating length". When checked on, the elevation difference from start and end nodes is accounted for, resulting in more accurate pipe lengths than the default approach based on x and y coordinates.
Boundary Trace toolbar shortcut
The Boundary Trace tool is now available directly from the toolbar near tracing tools, to support quick and interactive pipe isolation assessments on the map.
Manage scenarios window now supports sorting
The Manage scenarios window supports sorting of scenarios based on available columns.
Populate related object ID in Properties window by selecting object on map
When assigning object IDs in the Properties window, such as while populating control nodes on pumps or valves, the drop-down supports an option to select an object from the GeoPlan. When selected, the cursor switches to support selecting a valid node on the GeoPlan, which is then populated into the field.
Links now support geometry edits to directly reassign upstream or downstream nodes
The Edit object geometry tool can now be used to reassign the start and end vertices on links, which will automatically reassign upstream and downstream nodes.
When objects are deleted using SQL, the corresponding Control records are also deleted
SQL Queries can be used to directly delete objects in the Network, and any corresponding control records will be automatically deleted to prevent a mismatch of records.
Set Elevation of Objects tool has been removed
This redundant tool was based on a deprecated data format exclusive to one region. You are recommended to use ground models to populate elevations.
